Dear Mrs. Geis,
For me and my time with Bob, was a time of being in the presence of such a kind and gentle man who would listen to me and welcome me as Jesus does - a true reminder and witness of the compassionate heart of Jesus. My heart and prayers are with you and all the family...asking our Blessed Mother who is welcoming him into that Eternal Day, to send her comfort and strength...Peace to you...
